Freedom Writers (DC Edition) ft. ATTAM Lyrics

I'm out to raise freedom writers

With speeches vibrant with science, seen as survivors of violence

Elohim dialed in defying those demons rioting with tyrants

Yeah, my passion's underrated, I'm David fighting Goliath

I triumph against all odds with God's favor, bride of his highness

My guidance and yes, my comfort rate to contemplate and concentrate

On criticizing reasons why Eric Garner would suffocate

Fighting racial tensions 'causing Ferguson scenarios

That turn their back on justice like the cops did DeBlasio

On behalf of those trans genders treated like gang members

And that measured with faith I have treasured

I paint "legendary pictures" with a genius in tune

To use "the voice" with more "spice" than a scene out of "Dune"

Directed by Denis Villeneuve, 'cause we rarely see the proof

Of justice for the black boy some cop didn't mean to shoot

Out of fear that they're weapon strapped, the pot calling the kettle black

While "running with the devil" like that classic heavy metal track

That's a "higher learning" more than Eshon and Uncle Reece

'Propaganda' felt like 'Braille' via this 'Humble Beast'

Christian hip-hop metaphors so the saints run with me

While focusing on up and comers like the Summer league

With lyrics challenging my walk in life

In accepting Christ who died for me despite my flesh that said that I oughta die

If you knew my past you would be mortified

That's why Christ is not only my Savior but my Lord on High

That's why we need the gospel where the demons lie

In "Criminal Minds" you couldn't profile in a "CSI"

Or "Red" could never ever put on his "Blacklist", I'm vanquished

In God's image, I vanish. I'm his catfish

Freedom when I write, yeah

To break the chains of all the demons in your life, yeah

So that you recognize the reason for the Christ, yeah

And his relationship that you need to survive

He's the reason you're alive

Fight for freedom when I write, yeah

To break the chains of all the demons in your life, yeah

So that you recognize the reason for the Christ, yeah

And his relationship that you need to survive

He's the reason

I'm in public schools being a light, giving kids freedom to write

'Bout those demons that lie within in them, their eaten alive

And mistreated, it's why my after school season's a vibe

It's more than reason to rhyme, its pre-teens believing their bi

Having their feelings denied before there's a reasoning why

These feelings speak to their lives, guarded believing in Christ

While I'm dealing with life. Overcoming a marriage

That's on the rocks, while my people's being shot 'cause their freedom's denied

So let freedom ring

The Garden of Eden shows what freedom brings

But temptation made it hard to see them things

In the garden of Gethsemane, a bleeding king

Okay, listen, we talking submission

You behave depraved, and claim you a Christian?

His grace sufficient, make it efficient

He rose from the grave and gave us the mission

Yeah, of course, the pressure been mounting

We counted the cost, then met the accountant

Just trying to manage what lies in the balance

Without doing any damage, multiplying our talents

We paid them dues and got lives to lose

But you stay confused, putting stock in the news

Too many chose "don'ts" and not enough "do's"

Which only further proves, you don't see how the clock moves

Fight for freedom when I write, yeah

To break the chains of all the demons in your life, yeah

So that you recognize the reason for the Christ, yeah

And his relationship that you need to survive

He's the reason you're alive

Fight for freedom when I write, yeah

To break the chains of all the demons in your life, yeah

So that you recognize the reason for the Christ, yeah

And his relationship that you need to survive

He's the reason you're alive
